Hello, I’m Jacqueline (Jacquie/Jax).
I’m a licensed psychotherapist specializing in healing early childhood and attachment wounds that live beneath conscious awareness, shaping our relationships, choices, and capacity to love and be loved. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling anxious in relationships, fearful of abandonment, disconnected from themselves, caught in people-pleasing patterns, or struggling with grief, existential questions, self-worth, confidence, and a sense of inner security.
I’m also a clinical nutritionist and writer. I have personally experienced loss, deep heartbreak, divorce, and the death of a parent. Grief has been one of my greatest teachers in life, shaping my understanding of healing, resilience, and transformation. I’ve moved through many seasons of what Jung called the dark night of the soul, each one inviting me deeper into who I truly am.
I believe suffering often carries messages from the psyche, inviting us toward greater awareness, understanding, and integration. From a Jungian perspective, much of what shapes us exists beneath conscious awareness, revealing itself through our patterns, emotions, relationships, dreams, and the wisdom of the body.
Many of our struggles are rooted in early attachment experiences that shape our nervous system, our sense of safety, and the way we relate to ourselves and others. Together, we gently explore these patterns with compassion, creating space for healing, transformation, and a deeper connection to yourself. Healing does not happen alone or in isolation. It happens through relationship.
Embodiment is central to this process. The unconscious is not only something we think about—it is something we feel and carry in our bodies. Through the safety of the therapeutic relationship, we can reconnect with parts of ourselves that have been protected, hidden, or unseen, allowing greater wholeness and integration to emerge.
I believe healing unfolds through cycles of grief, growth, and renewal—mourning what was lost, releasing identities that no longer fit, and discovering who we are becoming. Heartbreak and grief, while deeply painful, can also become profound pathways into presence, self-love, and personal power.
I’m drawn to the symbol of the arrow—a symbol of truth, direction, and inner alignment. It represents the courage to move through difficulty without abandoning yourself, transform suffering into meaning, and reconnect with your inner authority—the deeper Self that has always been within you.
